Bible Question: But is that relevant for today time since many will say that all the prophesies have been fullfilled? Is not the bible complete? |
Bible Answer: Hood Rat, There has always been allot of confusion and speculation over prophecy and it's relevancy for today. Go back and get into Judges. It tells us right off the bat of a generation that had been born and knew not God or his teachings. We read how God raised up individuals during that time in there history. These individuals were operating on already established principle. But it was new to that generation. So it is today. We have God's Word, well established and true, but new to those who haven't heard. Prophecy is not just foretelling but also forth telling. Old light but new to those who haven't heard. In Him, lionheart |
